Chapter 249 You Thought Too Well of Him
She looked at Elisa and asked with concern. “Nothing they said is true, so don’t let them get to you. Every famous figure experiences slander from time to time.”
Elisa’s eyes flashed as she recalled about yesterday. She chuckled and said, “I’m not bothered by them.”
“Then, why do you…” Charli could see there was something off about Elisa’s mood. Thus, she looked at Elisa closely, not wanting to miss any trace of emotions on her face.
Elisa frowned under her gaze. “Will waited for me below my apartment again. I can’t behave too rudely and offend him. However, he thinks I am useful to him in his fight against the Wickam Group and keeps pestering me.”
Charli did not hold back her laughter. “Oh, that’s what happened.”
Elisa glared at her, but Charli smiled. “Babe, tell me. Have you ever considered this matter?”
Elisa felt suspicious as she looked at Charli, hinting at something mysteriously. “What is it?”
“Taking revenge against Gareth!”
Elisa blurted, “What?”
She looked confused. On the other hand, Charli chuckled and said, “Actually, you can give it a try and accept Will.”
Charli saw Elisa’s sudden frown and continued, “I’m not asking you to accept his love or to love him. After all, he courts you for a reason. That being said, you can choose to play along with him for the sake of taking revenge against Gareth.”
Elisa did not know what to say.
She thought Charli would come up with a good plan for her. However, Charli’s suggestion rendered her speechless. She pursed her lips and replied, “Charli, please don’t say something like this again.”
Charli looked at her with an astonished expression. “Are you not planning to give it a try? You can discuss privately with Will to pretend as a couple in public. Perhaps it will help you to overturn your current situation. The Wickam family said terrible things about you, but if Will openly courts you, it would amount to a slap on Old Mr. Wickam’s face.”
“What kind of person is Will? Everyone knows what a brilliant man he is. Since such an outstanding man courts you, it shows you are not as bad as the Wickam family claimed. This will turn their words on them, and you don’t even have to do anything. Isn’t this a good plan?”
Elisa shook her head helplessly. “Charli, stop giving such lousy ideas.”
“How is this a lousy idea? Girl, you should consider it carefully.”
Elisa shook her head again. She did not wish to continue discussing this matter, so she said calmly, “I have something else to tell you… I might not be here in the future.”
Charli was bewildered. “Why?”
Elisa looked at Charli for a moment before answering, “I’m returning to Benett Corporation.”
Charli widened her eyes in shock and looked at Elisa worriedly. “Have you considered this carefully? Benett Corporation is now under your uncle’s control. Thus, everyone there obeys your uncle without question. If you go there…”
“My uncle cares about appearances, so he will appear nice to me. Thus, the people at the company won’t do much to me. I will probably have a decent time there.”
“I think you better not go. Judging from your uncle’s behavior, I wouldn’t put it past him to get other employees to give you trouble on the pretext of training you! You think too well of him.”
However, Elisa remained unconcerned. “At the most, they would only trouble me at work. In actuality, they have misgivings about my uncle.”
